NRG Global Expands Application Testing Support for SUSE and AIX

Share Article

Ever changing business demands require companies to adapt and change their offerings whenever necessary. These demands require quick responses, changes, and shifts in how products are used or developed. NRG Global, a software quality assurance firm based in Los Angeles, has recently added support for SUSE and AIX operating systems to their load and stress testing solution, ScenarioBuilder. At the request of their client, CapGemini, NRG Global added support for both the Linux and Unix environments.

Cutting costs, driving efficiency, and increasing agility are mainstays for business today. Linux based servers, such as SUSE, businesses not only can reach those goals, but can also improve reliability, scalability, and security. The same can be said of ScenarioBuilder in the application performance testing realm. Multiple cored machines are utilized to produce more users per machine, failure screenshots can be emailed exactly when the error occurs, and reporting options are more robust. Further, the tool utilizes an image-based front end that does not require any coding or scripting. Scenarios can be created with images, text, or mouse coordinates so that testing performed is exactly as the user would see it.

SUSE is a flexible Linux distribution, and ScenarioBuilder is able to match in many regards. With the ability to run hundreds of machines on different environments simultaneously, testing can take place in a way that is as close to real world usage as possible. Testing, again, like SUSE, is fully scalable. Anywhere from fifty to ten thousand users can simultaneously test load, stress, and regression scenarios. ScenarioBuilder can be scaled up or down and is flexible depending on the load amount.

Application testing should be done during every go-live product cycle. Whether developing an application, or rolling out a product offering, making sure that the load can be handled is of utmost importance. To ensure this process is as smooth as possible, NRG Global can offer guidance for how the project can benefit from ScenarioBuilder with a live, free proof of concept. They also offer consulting, here for larger-scale items such as EMR, EHR, and more. Learn more about visit NRG Global, or download a free trial, here.
